Synopsis:THE CASUALTIES OF DRONGARWhile the Clone Wars wreak havoc throughout the
galaxy, the situation on the far world of Drongar is
desperate as Republic forces engage in a fierce fight
with the Separatists...
The threatened enemy offensive begins as the Separatists
employ legions of droids in their attack. Even with
reinforcements, the flesh and blood of the Republic
forces are just no match for battle droids' durasteel.
Nowhere is this point more painfully clear than in the
steaming Jasserak jungle on Drongar. Here, the doctors
and nurses of a small med unit face an impossible
situation. As the dead and wounded start to pile up,
surgeons Jos Vandar and Kornell "Uli" Divini
know that time is running out.
Even the Jedi healing abilities of Padawan Barriss Offee
are tested to the limits. Ahead lies a test for Barriss
that could very well lead to her death and that of
countless others. The conflict is growing and for this
obscure mobile med unit, there's only one resolution.
Shocking, bold, unprecedented, it's the only option Jos
and colleagues really have.
The unthinkable has become the inevitable. Whether it
kills them or not remains to be seen.
